nothing new on this phone..sony fanboys are very proud of this..c'mon water proof and dust proof sony phones already existed earlier as last year with the acro-s, sony will still be left behind with all that features..i have owned a lot of xperia phones but the problem with sony is that every phone lacks some useful features, like smart stay, air view, etc. not a avid fan of samsung but sure this kind of features helps me while im using my phone.
